Antique Painted Cast Iron Mammy With Hands on Hips Hubley Still Penny Bank

Description:  An antique cast iron bank in the form of a black woman wearing a white apron over a red dress standing with her hands on her hip. The woman appears to be smiling.  The bank retains its original coloring with most of the losses of color being in the face and hands. As we understand it, this bank was manufactured by Hubley Toy Co. of Lancaster Pennsylvania in 1914 through the 1940s. The bank is made of two pieces held together with a screw. The screw appears to be original to the piece. We opened the bank and found the number 812 stamped on both halves. We also observed quite a bit of rust on the inside. The bank has the coin slot in the back between the shoulders. The bank is all original with considerable soiling and rust. It retains quite a bit of its original paint with wear commensurate with its age and the fact that this was a toy played with over the years. The bank has no breaks or repairs.
